If I understand correctly, what you're asking is to be able to have the core content the same for all users, but to change view1, 2 and 3 per user.

This is pretty simple to achieve in a couple of ways.

1. You could put the logic into your page templates. Depending on where someone comes from, different containers get used for the content. Each container has different publishing rule data associated with it. The upside of doing it this way is that you can build it very easily without needing to create any custom publishing rules. The downside is that it's rather inflexible and in the long term is probably not such a good idea for maintenance reasons.

2. You could create a few custom publishing rules that allow you to specify the content to be shown for any given scenario. The scenario could be based on how the user got to the site (intranet,extranet,public) or what the group/role is for the user. The downside of doing it this way is that you have to learn how to build custom publishing rules. The upside is that it is very flexible and maintainable. If you decide that you want to change the content for a particular container so that it is available to all, you can switch to a publishing rule that ignores the context of the user without making a code change.

Hi all,

Probably not the correct list but I'll ask anyways.

We're currently experiencing "build many, publish many" syndrome here, we've got 5 existing "silo's" of content that we build and publish for various intranets/extranets/internet. We need to sort this out fast, we're looking for the best CMS that can do this for us, naturally i'd love to see a CFML version and Farcry springs to mind.

Does farcry give us the ability to say have a big block of "core" content, with some "unique" blocks that cater for our various audiences??

See diagram below: Each view is unique for the various "front-doors" (Intranet, Internet, Extranet), but also have the ability to see the "core" content also.

Would content be treated as objects and permissions applied to each which would then determine who see's what, via login, NTLM etc and general public.

Sorry if attachment doesn't come through
